Erm no it's not. It's their job to pass along what they know, that's all. This is not some paid service where you sit on your arse and get spoonfed incontrovertible facts so you can feel good about the latest transfer. You do have to exert a little effort of correlating what all the journos are saying and then make an informed decision based on all the available information.
But when they don't know anything they try to pass along information too so as to appear as relevant, it happens constantly and it leads to a situation where there are very few genuinely reliable journalists on transfers. I appreciate there are a lot of moving pieces with transfers, especially ones of this scale but only a few journalists are actually worth following.
